JPS Aluminata v Stage III Concepts Magnus Prime

Timely. I just put in Aluminata ICs. JPS has once again transformed my system. I echo what Dave R said above about the characteristics; all the pluses and nothing to say for a downside. I simply cannot say enough about the Aluminatas.

I'll also confirm his response to the other offerings from JPS. The Superconductor 3s are terrific at he price point, though not quite as revealing. The Aluminata stuff "opens up" the music--allows the detail through, and surely helps prevent signal degradation--more than anything I've experienced. Incredible is the only word.

The JPS Aluminata are among the kings of cables. I installed a pair between pre and power amp about 3 years ago, transformed system, and have not moved them since. And among other IC's in my system are Valhalla's, Stealth Indras and High Fidelity CT-1E's, so I have not been comparing slouches in cableland. The JPS are not spectacular -- just subtly outstanding in every characteristic. Beautifully made, too.
